At LEAST three times a day. He’s amazing :star_struck:

Snuggles, forehead kisses, I love you texts every morning, texts asking if I need anything on his way home, getting up with the baby on weekends, says he’s lucky to have me, makes me coffee, feeds the baby dinner so I can eat.

Every day all day. One of many reasons we stay intimate :heart:

At least once a day. And even if he doesn’t compliment me directly he’ll refer to how lucky he is to have me. I caught a great man :blush:

He goes to work and he watches our 9 year old so I can work.he got me a better car

Errr does everything for me when I’m ill but compliments never but I don’t really need them he shows it other ways :grin:

Sometimes. He brags about me to everyone and is learning more to tell me too.
He definitely shows me though in an his little ways and I know I am his girl!:purple_heart::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
I get it though what others say, hearing it more would be nice!

My husband is so not demonstrative in the traditional sense. He shows me he lives me by supporting me when I worked full time and went to college part time, laundry, grocery shopping, our date lunch every sunday and in countless other quiet ways. He’s a wonderful man. It took me awhile to catch one to his ways…but I’m glad I did. We’ll be married 40 years in Sept.

Never. No intimacy whatsoever. No hug or kiss in the morning when we wake up, none throughout the day, and none for bed. It’s been about a week now where I’ve had no kiss or hug at all. It’s not normal at all. But :woman_shrugging:t4: I compliment him all the time and never get anything in return. So I stopped.

Daily. Multiple times usually. It didn’t used to be like that though. We’ve been married almost 13 years. After a lot of conversations, I think he finally realized that just because he thinks it doesn’t mean I know it. So every day he tells me he’s proud of me and why or that I’m beautiful, etc etc. I think he used to think them and thinks them more now that we are older and can appreciate each other more, he just actually says them now

My incredible husband compliments me every day :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: it’s definitely the little things like if I catch him looking at me and he smiles really big, his hugs and kisses, the random “hey gorgeous” while I’m working on something. He cooks amazing food for us and takes the best care of me when I’m not feeling well. If I have a hard time sleeping he’ll rub my head or arms until I doze off. He’s the best :heart: we’ve only been married for a couple years, but we’ve know each other for 15 years now, and I’ve been in love with him the whole time :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I try to express how much I love him as much as he does for me, I’m just not as good with my words…

Makes me coffee, breakfast,dinner somtimes surprises me with treats that’s enough for me brings the kids places lets me sleep somtimes​:laughing::laughing::laughing:

Mine doesn’t really say a whole bunch of compliments unless it’s something that’s changed profoundly (“I love your new hair cut, you’re beautiful!”) but I’ve realized he’s just not always great with spoken words. It’s absolutely not uncommon for me to wake up to a lovey note and a sparkly clean kitchen (he goes through periods of being a night owl) he brings me home flowers randomly and washes my car every weekend. Those are just some examples.

He tells me multiple times a day. Forehead kisses, half the time when I come into a room he’s in he’ll jaw drop and stare and I could be in a baggy shirt with a messy bun.

My husband’s actions speak more than his words.

Love is shown with actions, those small details that we often overlook, it is useless to be praised or told in words if the actions say otherwise.

My hubs wasn’t very outspoken about that, he didn’t have a good role model growing up. But in private,we understood each other.

Every day.
But I’ve also told him that I need/want affection daily. I need it to thrive and when he wasn’t doing it I asked him for it.
So now I get kisses and hugs and stuff everyday. And he tells me I’m pretty or cute or whatever he’s feeling

How often do you compliment your spouse. You get what you give.

Every day to the point that even my six year old now randomly tells me I’m beautiful. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: it’s all in the little things. I haven’t put fuel in my truck since we got married. He leaves for work before I do and when it snows, he cleans the snow off and scrapes my windows when he does his. He will bring the kids a candy bar when he brings me my favorite treat so the kids don’t ask me to share. On the weekends if the kids wake up before me he will quietly sneak them out of the house to go get a chocolate milk and donut so I can sleep in… the list goes on.

Everyday. Multiple times a day. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Mine isn’t romantic verbally, he goes to work, provides, doesn’t cheat, doesn’t yell or hit. If I have a headache he will cook dinner. He shows with actions. 23 years together and it has always been like this

My man tells me he loves me multiple times a day and how lucky he is to have me in his life. I do the same for him. I get up mornings and make his coffee, we make dinner together most nights. We make love very often. We love each other very much!

Never. Nothing. Ever. Was completely disconnected from us, amongst other issues. Then said he didn’t understand why when he got divorce papers

He compliments me multiple times a day, but he always has. He brings home flowers and gifts for no reason, brings me breakfast in bed on the weekends, he plans date nights and weekends away, calls and texts throughout the day to make sure I know he’s thinking of me and even though he works hard at work, he still wants to help me at home if I’ll let him.

Ugh my husband compliments me like 24/7. It’s constant. He’s adorbs though. :heart:

Turn that question around on yourself. If you’re expecting it from your spouse, I really hope you are doing it to your spouse. Relationships are 50/50 and a two-way street.

Every single day for the last 9 years :heart:

A nice butt smack, or he comes up behind me and grabs my hips in a hug fashion.

Mine calls me every break to see how I’m doing and slaps my butt every time he walks through the door and kisses me good night and morning everyday.
